For Hire

As part of our social enterprise we offer hire of our spaces and buses for use by the community when they are not being used for programs and services.

Our hire fees generally cover any costs associated with hiring and maintaining the spaces and any profits from hire are used to offer additional programs for older people or people living with disability or enable us to waive co-payments for participants who are facing severe financial hardship.

We have room hire options available at both the Holdsworth Street Centre and Gaden Centre & Cafe. We also make our buses available for hire by community groups and schools.

The Club Room and kitchen at the Holdsworth Centre, with access to toilets including a change table, can be hired for Children’s Parties on Saturday mornings, Saturday afternoons, Sunday afternoons and some public holidays.

Please note: The playground itself is always open to the general public, but we do make extra equipment available to party hirers.

Important: You must read and comply with the procedures below to be able to go ahead with a party at Holdsworth Community Centre.
